Bewere Books and HUFF Aromas are proud to open our first co-run anthology, SNIFF, an erotic furry anthology dedicated to all the musk lovers out there. We’d love to see (and smell) burly coach dads getting huffed after practice, jockstrap-sniffing thieves getting punished, a twink wearing a face mask to the store after that mask was shoved in his boyfriend’s underwear all day the day before, and more!
We encourage any and all sexualities, including polyamorous, asexual, and aromantic representations. Kink and fetish are perfectly fine (and maybe even encouraged) with submissions, and you are free to play around with genre here.
Important musk note: Just like HUFF Aromas itself, even we have limits as to what we will publish on the musk spectrum. We will not be accepting content for this anthology that involves smegma, watersports, scat, or ABDL.
Editor's Note: "One thing I really like to see in erotica is when the story is integrated into the sex. I tire of what I call 'bedroom erotica,' where there’s all this story and all this buildup and then the characters just move to the bedroom to do the final sex scene. It makes the whole story very predictable, basic, and not super interesting. I wouldn’t diss on it so hard if I didn’t get like... 20 of them with every anthology. I like seeing something a bit fresher. One subset of this is 'hobbyist erotica,' where the author spends 20 pages having characters romantically bond over a hobby or sport the author did some Wikipedia research on, so they can infodump a lot, and then the characters abandon all of that to go have sex in the bedroom. If your characters have a board game night story, I'd rather see them on top of the game board than on top of the bed. TLDR: I like to see the sex to be an integral part of the story, not something disparate and disconnected."
